Hall County sheriff’s deputies and other first responders were sent just before 7 a.m. Thursday to the scene about 4 miles (7 kilometers) west of Grand Island.

Investigators say 29-year-old Andrew Howard, of Grand Island, died in the crash.

The sheriff’s office says a preliminary investigation shows Howard was eastbound on the highway when his car failed to negotiate a curve, went into a ditch and rolled. Howard was the only occupant of the car.
